Back Everyone,
I've seen conflicting information on whether this indeed a preferred/required order to get Windows Vista and RH Enterprise 5 dual boot working correctly.
I installed Vista first on a 160GB hard drive. This is the current disk configuration:
I'm not even sure how I would do it by installing VISTA first. I installed it first with: Partition 0: 75MB (boot partition??) Partition 1: 120GB Vista Free Space of 20 GB for RH Partition 2: Vista Recovery
RH installation complained that there was no room for /boot partition even though there was 20GB of Free unpartitioned disk for RH (I'm guesing it needs to be "near the front").
I've heard that Vista will wipe out the /boot information (or ignore any other O/S that may be present) if I install RH first.
Currently I'm sitting with the above configuration and am thinking of reinstalling with RH first.
Any information greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
-Jim
